CASTRO 'CONCERNED' ABOUT FIGHTING HAVANA Premier Fidel Castro has rushed to central Cuba, where a band of insurgents in the Escambray Moun tains are inflicting heavy casualties on his inexperienced militia, a high army source said Saturday.

KHRUSHCHEV TIGHTENS LAWS MOSCOW Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev has urged "more severe laws against drunkards, speculators and para sites," the government newspaper Izvestia said today.

All methods of racial segrega tion in Birmingham's terminal station have been ordered "obliterated" by a three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. District Court of Appeals, United Press International learned Satur day. ...

INDONESIANS ATTACK AMBASSADOR'S HOME JAKARTA, Indonesia A mob of Indonesian demonstra tors shouting "hands off the Congo" attacked the U.S. am bassador's residence here Saturday, smashing windows, de stroying furniture and lighting a huge bonfire in the front yard. Rock-throwing Indonesian students also attacked the Bclgianl Embassy, breaking windows and ripping down the flag in demonstrations they said were aimed at avenging the "assassination" of Patrice Lumumba. Exiled MADRID (UPD Exiled dic tator Juan D. Peron declines to talk politics from his Madrid headquarters, but he continues to get out the vote in Argen tina. He last demonstrated this power in this month's off-year elections for one seat each in the Argentine Senate and Cham ber of Deputies. Peron's followers obediently followed his instructions to cast blank ballots, and about 242,000 of the 1,500,000 votes cast were blank. Less Than Last Year The Peronista total, however, was 100,000 less than last year's election count of blank votes. Observers said it was obvious many Peron supporters voted for Alfredo Palactios, pro-castro Socialist candidate who won a seat in the Senate. It was still uncertain whether this group has given up its al legiance to Peron for good. One trend that has been es tablished in Argentina, how ever, is a return to the Social ist fold by many left-wing vot ers who supported Peron when he first came to power. Peron Willing Peron is willing to talk to newsmen but carefully avoids any specific comment on Argen tine politics in order not to create problems for the Span ish government. He also is never precise on his estimate of his chances for a comeback. "We are in no hurry," he says. "If it is hot today, it will be tomorrow, or the next month, or within a year." N. Khrushchev Refuses To Talk Peron Still Getting People Favor Peron claims that 70 per cent of. the Argentine people favor his return, or at least a return of his doctrines. He said the last national elec tions showed a two million-vote preference for the Peronistas. In the February by-election, it was noted, the voting was confined to Buenos Aires, tradi tionally not a Peronista strong hold. Most of the dictator's strength is in the provinces, especially Buenos Aires Province. . Its biggest concentration is in the so-called Peronista belt around the capital, a district of heavy industries and the homes of industrial workers. Peronisias Demonstrate Peron supporters did not limit their backing to the bal lot box in the recent voting. KIM NOVAK Friday 'Encourage By JIM CLOTFELTER President William Friday of the Consolidated University told the Daily Tar Heel yes terday that he was "encour aged by the action of the Ad visory Budget Commission." Friday was referring specifi cally to the Commission's action in recommending that the Gen eral Assembly appropriate $3.2 million of the requested $3.6 million to raise faculty salaries at the three member schools of the C.U. On February 9 the Commis sion's $1.5 million biennium budget was presented to the legislature. Gov. Terry Sanford addressed the legislature later that day, saying that he would ask more for education than the Commis sion recommended. He is scheduled to speak to Malaya In Con Churches Support Integrated Theatres Two separate church groups recently expressed their anti-segregation feelings to the managers of the picketed Carolina and Varsity theaters. The Baptist Student Union passed a resolution last month, favoring integration, and sent copies to the local tneater and restaurant mana gers. : , Chapel Hill's Community Churh.-circulated, a ithealer int, tegration -: petition ' among " its congregation last Sunday and sent copies of the petition to the theater managers. The BSU's resolution ex pressed appreciation and con tinued support to those Chapel Hill concerns which had already integrated and urged other busi nesses to follow their lead. Resolution Claims The resolution claimed that "Christian tradition" compelled the group to "support actively all endeavors" which led to ward recognition of racial Politics, But . . . Bands of them roamed the streets of Buenos Aires staging demonstrations. One group stoned the building of an oppo sition newspaper, shouting "We are Peronistas, not Reds or Fascists." Peron's life in exile, by con trast, is quiet. He arrived in Spain Jan. 29, 1960, for what appeared to be a temporary stay of two or three months. But he has no apparent plans now to leave. Comes To Seville He came to Seville, southern Spain, from Ciudad Trujillo, the Dominican Republic, his last exile home. From Seville, he moved to a summer resort near Malaga, and then last spring came to Madrid, where he has an apartment in one of the most expencive quarters of the city. Peron never is seen in night clubs. He often goes to the theater or to a movie, and he spends three hours a day walk ing "It keeps me fit." Writes To Supporters He spends his days in corres pondence with his supporters. Occasionally, he receives visit- tors in his apartment. Four aides came here with Peron. Only one, his pretty blonde secretary Isabel Mar tinez, remains with him. The first to leave was Al berto Campos, a leading figure of the underground Peronista board. Campos is believed in hiding somewhere in Argen tina. Friend Leaves John Del Re, an Italian- American photographer describ the legislature later in the ses sion. The Commission's recommen dations also called for $13.2 mil lion (out of $33.2 million re quested by the C.U.) to be ap propriated for capital improve ment expenditures at the three schools. Friday said that the capital improvement recommendations were "good . . . They fit into the long-range program of the C.U." The 40-year-old C.U. presi dent, who has been outspokenly against student cost increases from the time of his being named president five years ago, pointed out that the Commis sions recommendations win raise student costs considerably. The Commission recommend ed that tuition for North Caro- lina students be raised by $25 Offers equality. Last Sunday was. Brotherhood Sunday in most of the churches In "the" country- . . ' , - The Community Church took that opportunity to pass a peti tion among its congregation reading, "I request the mana gers of the Chapel Hill theaters to open their movies to all on an equal basis." 159 Sign Petition One hundred and fifty-nine people signed the petition. The- vote was not an official vote of the congregation, but according to the chairman of the church's board of officers, it was a "consensus." The Vote ed as a "personal friend" has left for an unknown destina tion. Americo Barrios, whose real name is Luis Maria Abramonte, is reported to be in Montevideo, Uruguay. Barrios, Argentine writer and former director of the Peronista party organ Democracia, was sent to Montevideo by Peron to heal a break in the party ranks in Argentina, just across the River Plate from Montevideo. Peron Elected Peron was elected president of Argentina in 1946 and was ousted by a three-day revolt of the armed forces in September, 1955. He was granted asylum aboard a Paraguayan gunboat in Buenos Aires harbor and later lived in exile in Venezuela and the Dominican Republic. Summer Jobs Interviews Set j Mrs. John R.

In addition, the self-liquidat-ing debt will be increased by $2.6 million, if the legislature approves the recommendations. Students in the three C.U. schools already have a $13.5 million self-liquidating debt to pay off. UNC's portion of the old self liquidating debt is $4,875,000 borrowed for building dormi tories and $2,000,000 for build ing apartments for married stu dents. All this money has been bor rowed since 1956. One million dollars of the prospective new self-liquidating debt must be paid off by Carolina students.

LOST TRUCK FOUND NEW YORK (UPD At least one trucking company here will never again accuse the city of not cleaning away snow fast enough. A stolen trailer truck filled with 30.000 tins of coffee was found Thursday with its cargo intact. It was stuck in a snow bank. DIE IN RIOTING , NEW DELHI (UPD The number of deaths in . central India's Hindu-Moslem rioting has reached 46, it was announc ed here. The latest report of killings came from a village near Jub- bulpore, where 15 persons were burned to death in a house. More than 1,100 persons have ction Of not to be included in a bond issue. If the student union recom mendation is approved by the legislature, and (the bond issue portion) by the people in a gen eral election, student fees will have to be increased by approxi mately $9 per year in order to start paying off the debt. Fees will probably be in creased somewhere from $14 to $19 per year to collect the money needed to run the student union. There will probably be no in crease in room rent or any other student costs. The tuition increases, which President ' Friday thinks the legislature will approve, are supposed to net approximately two million dollars for the C.U. over the biennium. Of that amount, 50 per cent lers JLo 'All-African' Rulin h jf S j, ill On The Campus The Canterbury Club will participate in an interdenomi national program at the Pres byterian Student Center follow ing the regular evening service and 6:00 supper at the Episco pal Church.

Budget Commission would be given toward self-help scholarships to offset the in creased tuition costs for needy students. This applies only to self-help students presently en rolled. Forty per cent of the tuition money would go toward higher faculty salaries. The other ten per cent would be appropriated for library books. Friday intends to ask the legislature for the power of dis cretion in the distribution of the tuition money. This would mean that more than 40 per cent could go to ward faculty salaries (or less). All higher tuition revenues will remain at the individual schools, instead of going into a general C.U. pool. Last November the State Board of Higher Education UN 'Force Stevenson Wins Battle "With UN Commission's Release UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (UPI) Malaya came to the aid of the faltering U.N. Congo troop operation Sat urday with an offer of 800 more soldiers. But Ghana demanded that the troubled African coun try be put under "all African" control with all white of ficials removed. Malaya's offer to bolster the U.N. troop command, riddled by defections by nations supporting slain ex-Prc- mier Patrice Lumumba, was gratefully accepted by Secretary-General Dag Hammar- skjold. Ghana's President Kwame Nkrumah proposed a seven phase plan calling for an Afri can U.N. Command, disarming of all Congolese armed factions, by force if necessary, and re moval of all foreign diplomatic missions until order was re stored under African leader ship. Flexible Proposal Such a proposal, Nkrumah said, would be flexible enough to keep Asian forces in the U.N Command but all whites, such as the Swedes and Irish, would have to go. Nkrumah offered to come to New York to help organize the plan. Behind the scenes, U.S. Am bassador Adlai E. Stevenson won a diplomatic tug of war when the 18-nation Congo ad visory group decided to release a report proposing stronger U.N. action in the Congo. The report was drawn up by an 11-nation conciliation com mission to the Congo. Sought Release Stevenson sought release of the report against Russian in sistence it be kept secret Sources said at Saturday's two hour session Guinea strongly backed Russia's stand. But Ste venson had his 'way. The advisory group agreed to make the concoliation commis sion report available to all U.N delegations with a note stating that the 1,000-word document reflected. the opinion of the con ciliation commission delegates, not necessarily that of their home governments. The conciliation delegates came from Ethiopia, Ghana, In dia, Liberia, Nigeria, Morocco, Pakistan, The Sudan, Tunisia, Infirmary In the Infirmary yesterday were: Janet Yeary, ljaureiien Cadmus, Najoo Kotwal, Muriel Hogg, Dhirendra Singhdeo, Paul Porter, Frederick Blackwell, Eugene Reclord, Walter Wither spoon, David Sloan, Paul Maus, Jerry Gilbert, Steve Lindell, Gerald Turner, Richard Hofler, Kenneth Goodnight, Frank Kertesz, Beth Harris.

A list follows, showing how much more the Advisory Budg et Commission recommended in each area than did the Board. HIGHER FACULTY SALAR IES $475,264 ADDITIONAL PERSONNEL $69,984 (The Board recommended no money at all for new person nel.) NEW EQUIPMENT $4,000 ADDITIONAL SUPPLIES AND EXPENSES $10,000 REGIONAL EDUCATION $4,500 LONG-RANGE PLANNING $20,000 TOTAL $583,748 Malaya and Senegal. Offer Would Double Malaya's ofTer of more troops would more than double its con tingent to the U.N. Congo Com mand from 613 men to 1,413. This would bring the U.N. strength to 17,453 soldiers. But by early March, withdrawals by Morocco and Indonesia would reduce this number to less than 15,000. Irish Gen. Sean MacKeoh, the U.N. Command chief, estimated he needed at least 20,000 men to do a proper policing job.
